Add this spot to your next visit to Naples, NY. 📍@plenty_the_diner is one of those spots that you know is going to be yummy the second you walk in. This airy, modern diner brings all the made-from-scratch goodness we locals have grown to love from their sister bakery, the OG, @plenty_the_bakery in South Bristol, NY, both owned by Brendan and Michelle Halloran. 

The blueberry pancakes I shared with hubby were a favorite for me, especially with the in-season blueberries on top. And the Plenty Bowl wasn’t much a “bowl” per say but it was the perfect diner breakfast combo of home fries topped with melted cheese curds (Zomg 😋), your choice of eggs and breakfast meats. There are sandwiches and salads to choose from as well if you are leaning more towards lunch, and of course, freshly baked pastries. No espresso drinks but another highlight for me was their cold brew - which surpassed any “diner coffee” I’ve ever had. 

There might be a short wait but on a nice day you can wait at one of the picnic tables located in the park right next to the diner. 

Wonderful staff, lovely vibe, and a perfect start to your day exploring sweet Naples.

24 hours of Josie 🐾 have been such a joy as she 24 hours of Josie 🐾 have been such a joy as she has already proven to be every bit of the cuddly, playful, curious, gentle doggie we knew she would be. Will she be put outside to guard livestock? No. She is far more likely to be on the couch getting belly rubs and watching TV with us, or going for long walks in the park or around our country cottage, or falling asleep in her cushy bed.
I’d like to introduce you to the newest member o I’d like to introduce you to the newest member of our family: Josie 🐾  She is a 2 year old Great Pyrenees mix - yes, I know, completely opposite from our previous fur babies. She loves cuddles and scratches, walks, and kisses. She also seemingly loves #Survivalofthethickest and her new bed. 

We are teaching her to do more than just sit on command, and have yet to hear her bark, though based on her in-take form at the shelter, she will at the mailman. 

Thank you to everyone at @schuylercountyhumane for connecting us with this sweet angel. We are going to shower her with all the love. 💕 Support your local humane society.
Oh, Mother Earth. I am so sorry we keep causing yo Oh, Mother Earth. I am so sorry we keep causing you so much harm. Hoping for the safety of our Canadian neighbors.
